The Jonowski-Indian (1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 d6 3 Nc3 Bf5) has enjoyed the patronage of such strong players as Mikhail Tal, Jan Timman, Bent Larsen, Larry Christiansen, John Fedorowicz and Kamran Shirazi. In the past few years the popularity of the line has grown tremendously. This is a solid variation of the Old Indian which often leads to King's Indian type positions which have not been heavily analyzed. In this short monograph National Master Eric Schiller has brought together a large number of examples and added critical new analysis. The result is a treatise which presents all one needs to know to play the opening from either side.
1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 d6 3 Nc3 Bf5
This is actually a fairly well-established line of the Old Indian with roots in the Roaring Twenties. Yet it rarely fails to surprise an opponent. The point is that if White tries to achieve a quick e2-e4, Black obtains significant counterplay. Tal, Larsen, Gheorghiu and Suba can be found among the defenders of the Black side. IM Kamran Shirazi has played it consistently, especially in the 1986 United States Championship.
Theory has never had a very high regard for the opening. Consider Alekhine's comments on the subject: "This move would be reasonable if White had already developed his king's Knight, after which the control of e4 would temporarily remain in Black's hands. But in the actual situation the Bishop, after White's e2-e4, will have no future whatsoever. The late Janowski had certainly very fine feeling for handling the pair of bishops - but was never the great openings connoisseur his contemporaries liked to represent him." This quote tells us two things. First,
that Alekhine did not yet understand the hypermodern approach to the game, and second, that the opening should certainly be playable against 4 Nf3!
White has a number of options, explored in the following chapters:
I 4 g3
II 4 Bg5
III 4 e4
IV 4 f3
V 4 Nf3
Only 4 f3 is discussed in ECO.
